Alan Cox 9d1b7fa31f Reverse the direction of pmap_promote_pde()'s traversal over the specified ... page table page. The direction of the traversal can matter if pmap_promote_pde() has to remove write access (PG_RW) from a PTE that hasn't been modified (PG_M). In general, if there are two or more such PTEs to choose among, it is better to write protect the one nearer the high end of the page table page rather than the low end. This is because most programs access memory in an ascending direction. The net result of this change is a sometimes significant reduction in the number of failed promotion attempts and the number of pages that are write protected by pmap_promote_pde().		2008-06-12 05:18:09 +00:00
